It was on the dock when I met him, it was at sunset. The sunset looked just like a picture. It was windy, cold, but yet so beautiful. As I was walking along the dock I saw him. Just standing there, at the very end of the dock. He was looking down into the lake. He was tall, with brown fluffy hair. He had a coat on and a pair of sweatpants. He turned around and just looked at me.

His eyes were green just like jade, and he looked so innocent. But, there was something mysterious about him, something ineffable. He stood there standing there for a minute or so. Then he started to walk towards me. A grin appeared on his face. I immediately realized there was something wrong. He kept walking towards me. I tried to run, but I couldn’t. It was like I was paralyzed. I realized he was getting closer so I was able to run again. I kept running down the dock back towards the land, but it seemed like it went on forever.

I looked back and he was still chasing me. I screamed for so long. I begged for someone to come and help me, but nobody came. He caught up to me. Looked me in my eyes, and smirked. He pushed me into the lake, but there was a problem. I couldn’t swim.

Do you ever think someone looks so innocent even though you never met them, but then they do something you didn't know they would do.
